TVision homepage

 

This is the official homepage of TVision, a port of Turbo Vision.

 

Turbo Vision (often called also TV, for brevity) was a widely-used library that provided a textmode application framework. By using this library the programmer could wrote a beautiful and flexible user interface in a short time. TV was available in C++ and Pascal and is a product of Borland International (also known as Inprise); it was originally intended to run only under MS-DOS and Windows shells. You can still download these ancient libraries from Borland or Inprise.

 

Luckily, today this library is available for many other platforms (ported by independent programmers). My port is based on the latest C++ version (Turbo Vision 2.0); the targets are generic Unix systems. It runs well under GNU/Linux and FreeBSD, at least.
